Hi Adrian! I appreciate the pronunciation materials that you carefully tailor to us, and your ability to identify when we mispronounce and to correct it. I observe in myself how much my pronunciation has improved during the 6-month weekly practise with you; and more importantly, I now feel more confident when I speak English with others as I can identify where my weaknesses and strengths are. This course is invaluable to me. Thanks a lot for your dedication and keep up with your good work!!!

I am trying to do my best, I have to improve my pronunciation so much and Adrian is very supportive and helps me to achieve my goal. I have tried other pronunciation classes in italki and they do not have the methodology to teach pronunciation or accent reduction or the knowledge of phonetics . I highly recommend Adrian. Thanks Adrian for another productive lesson!!
